Nine Energy Service, Inc. ("Nine" or the "Company") (NYSE: NINE) reported fourth quarter 2021 revenues of $105.1 million, net loss of $(15.7) million and adjusted EBITDA of $4.6 million. For the fourth quarter 2021, adjusted net lossB was $(15.7) million, or $(0.52) adjusted basic loss per shareC.
The Company had provided original fourth quarter 2021 revenue guidance between $92.0 and $100.0 million, with actual results falling above the provided range and representing a sequential revenue increase of approximately 13% quarter over quarter.
“We outperformed our Q4 revenue guidance due to strong performances in both cementing and completion tools, both of which outperformed market drivers this quarter,” said Ann Fox, President and Chief Executive Officer, Nine Energy Service. “We saw activity and pricing improvements across most of our service lines, which is reflected in our 13% increase in revenue quarter over quarter.”
“Despite difficult market conditions in 2021, we were able to better position ourselves to capitalize on what looks to be a growth environment for the near to medium term. For the 7th consecutive year, we grew our market share of U.S. stages completed, increasing from approximately 20% in 2020 to approximately 22% in 2021. In cementing, we increased the total number of jobs completed by approximately 22% year over year, while the average U.S. rig count increased by only 10% over that same time. I remain extremely happy with both the success of our new Stinger Dissolvable plug, as well as the market’s overall adoption of dissolvable plugs. We estimate that the dissolvable plug market has increased from approximately 10-15% at the end of 2018 to approximately 20-25% at the end of 2021, and we believe that our initial prediction of the dissolvable plug market expanding to 35-50% by the end of 2023 is achievable. Our Stinger Dissolvable plug continues to perform extremely well in the field and is proven in our numbers. We increased the total number of Stinger products sold by over 400% in 2021, versus EIA completions, which increased approximately 32% over this same time.”
“We remain very optimistic looking into 2022 and 2023 and anticipate North American capital spending will increase by at least 20% in 2022. I do not see any near-term solution for the labor shortages and as our customers try to increase activity, this should move pricing leverage back to the service providers. For Q1, we have seen activity increases thus far and expect Q1 will be better than Q4 with sequential revenue increases. With what we know today, we anticipate revenue and earnings to improve each quarter throughout 2022. We remain differentiated by our service line diversity, forward-leaning technology, geographic diversity, and balanced commodity exposure. The shift of our top-line revenue derivation towards completion tools and technology over the last several years has significantly reduced the capital and labor needs of the Company to generate earnings growth. We have proven our ability to grow earnings while emerging from a downturn and believe our asset-light business model will enable us to capitalize on an improving market environment.”

(a) 2020 impairment charges were driven by sharp declines in global crude oil demand and an economic recession associated with the coronavirus pandemic as well as sharp declines in oil and natural gas prices.
(b) Amounts represent transaction and integration costs, including the cost of inventory that was stepped up to fair value during purchase accounting, associated with 2018 acquisitions.
(c) Amount primarily represents the difference between the repurchase price and the carrying amount of Senior Notes repurchased in 2021 and 2020
AAdjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) loss or gain on revaluation of contingent liabilities, (iv) loss or gain on the extinguishment of debt, (v) loss or gain on the sale of subsidiaries, (vi) restructuring charges, (vii) stock-based compensation expense, (viii) loss or gain on sale of property and equipment, and (ix) other expenses or charges to exclude certain items which we believe are not reflective of ongoing performance of our business, such as legal expenses and settlement costs related to litigation outside the ordinary course of business. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period without regard to our financing methods or capital structure and helps identify underlying trends in our operations that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the impairments, acquisitions and dispositions and costs that are not reflective of the ongoing performance of our business.
BAdjusted Net Income (Loss) is defined as net income (loss) adjusted for (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) restructuring charges, (iv) loss or gain on the sale of subsidiaries, (v) loss or gain on the extinguishment of debt and (vi) the tax impact of such adjustments. Management believes Adjusted Net Income (Loss) is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and helps identify underlying trends in our operations that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the impairments and acquisitions.
CAdjusted Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share is defined as adjusted net income (loss), divided by weighted average basic shares outstanding. Management believes Adjusted Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share is useful because it allows us to more effectively evaluate our operating performance and compare the results of our operations from period to period and help identify underlying trends in our operations that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of the impairments and acquisitions.
DAdjusted Gross Profit (Loss) is defined as revenues less cost of revenues excluding depreciation and amortization. This measure differs from the GAAP definition of gross profit (loss) because we do not include the impact of depreciation and amortization, which represent non-cash expenses. Our management uses adjusted gross profit (loss) to evaluate operating performance. We prepare adjusted gross profit (loss) to eliminate the impact of depreciation and amortization because we do not consider depreciation and amortization indicative of our core operating performance.
EReturn on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) is defined as after-tax net operating profit (loss), divided by average total capital. We define after-tax net operating profit (loss) as net income (loss) plus (i) goodwill, intangible asset, and/or property and equipment impairment charges, (ii) transaction and integration costs related to acquisitions, (iii) interest expense (income), (iv) restructuring charges, (v) loss (gain) on the sale of subsidiaries, (vi) loss (gain) on extinguishment of debt, and (vii) the provision (benefit) for deferred income taxes. We define total capital as book value of equity plus the book value of debt less balance sheet cash and cash equivalents. We compute the average of the current and prior period-end total capital for use in this analysis. Management believes ROIC provides useful information because it quantifies how well we generate operating income relative to the capital we have invested in our business and illustrates the profitability of a business or project taking into account the capital invested.
